He was very cordial and spoke in a
highly complimentary way of my work in
Alaska - said the people in Alaska from
Cal - were all pleased with me - and that
he was also - that I was one of his constituents
&c. I was also introduced to Senator Gallinger
of Vt. and Senator Petters of Alabama.
These greetings were so highly satisfactory
to Senator Foster that he actually thawed out
and declared that I must be reappointed
- in Senator Burnhams presence, who
informed him that the four Senators compri
=sing the Senate Sub-Com. on Territories that
went to Alaska last summer had long
since agreed to that! Wrote Senator
Foster letter in favor of naming the big
glacier on north side of Mt McKinley the
"Hanna" glacier - and asking Hanna's
friends in the Senate to look after it.
